STOVE-SPITTOON.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 361,902, dated April 26, 1887.

Application filed August 27, 1886. Serial No. 211,936. (No model.)

To all whom, it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, WILLIAM D. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Marion, in the county of Williamson and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Spittoons,ofwhich the following is a specification, reference being had thereinto the accompanying drawings.

My invention relates to stove-spittoons designed for the reception of cigar-stumps, tobacco-spittle, and the like; and it consists in the construction and novel combination of parts, as hereinafter described and claimed.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View of a portion of a stove provided with a spittoon embodying the features of my invention. Fig. 2 is a face view or front elevation of the same. Fig. 8 is a vertical sectional view taken through both the stovesection and the spittoon; and Fig. 4 is a face elevation, partly in section.

The object of theinvention is to provide a heating-stove with a spittoon or receptacle for the reception andconveyance to the stove of tobacco-juice, cigar-stumps, and the like, in order that such offensive matter may be consumed by the fire, and the smoke and smell arising from such consumption may be carried oil by the draft through the stove.

Referring by letter to the accompanying drawings, A designates a section of the stove-' body, which is provided with an opening in its wall, either at the front side of the stove or in any other convenient portion of the same.

B is the frame of the spittoon, with which the spittoon B is cast or to which it is'secured when made of porcelain or other material than metal, said spittoon communicating with the opening in the wall of the stove. The frame B is provided along its vertical sides, above the spittoon B with guide-flanges E which are riveted to the outer face of the stove-wall, the rivets being passed through ears on the guidefianges F.

O is a slide or damper, the edges of which work in the ways formed by the guide-flanges F when said.slide is operated to open or close the opening. The slide or damper O is provided with an arm, 0, to the upper end of which arm 0 the inner end of a bent lever, D, is pivoted by a bolt and nut, c. The lever D is fulcrumed to the frame B by a bolt and nut, and at its upper or outer end said lever D is provided with a knob or hand-piece by which to operate it to raise or lower the slide 0.

The inner face of the slide 0, when made of metal, should be highly polished to prevent offensive matter from adhering to it.

Having described my invention what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-

The combination, with the stovebody provided with an opening thereimof the frame provided with the flanged guideways and the open pocket or receptacle, and the slide and the bent operating-lever, substantially as specified.

In testimony whereof I affix my sigi'iature in presence of two witnesses.
